Traditional methods for fabricating thin film composite membranes, such as direct polymerization or casting on a polymeric substrate, often have limitations. This study presents a novel approach that overcomes these limitations. By forming chemical bonds between existing carbon nanotube (CNT) precursors and polyamide-based microfilters or fabrics, this method achieves a significant improvement in reaction efficiency, which is confirmed by scanning electron microscopic (SEM) images. The circulating-infiltrating reaction (CIR) ensures a steady flow of CNT dispersion throughout the polyamide matrix, promoting complete contact and preventing clogging. Flow simulations indicate that turbulent and reversed flows achieve uniform CNT coverage on the exposed surface of the filters. Furthermore, ultrasound assistance during the CIR process can further enhance these effects, which can be shown on CNT coverage on back side of the composite membrane. These advantages demonstrate the potential of CIR, with or without ultrasound, for large-scale manufacturing of thin film composite membranes from readily available materials.
